The catalytic reaction between steam and hydrocarbon into mixtures of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and methane forms the basic feedstock (synthesis gas) to produce ammonia, methanol and other chemicals. For reactor design and to find the most economic reaction conditions it is necessary to study theoretically the reaction behaviour with respect to the operating parameters. In the present thermodynamic study we examine the temperature dependence of chemical compositions at equilibrium. The mathematical computation system Maple is used for the symbolic and numerical calculations, for generating the graphics and formatting the document. |
